About the school
Charlotte House Prep School is a forward thinking school built on traditional values. Our girls learn through discovery, are aware of the world around them and experience the very best in art, music and literature. They are offered every opportunity to shine in this secure and unthreatening environment.
Our school motto "I am, I can, I ought, I will" has been central to our ethos for over 80 years. This teaches our girls a sense of self worth, an understanding of right and wrong and the confidence to succeed. Our school emblem is the skylark. It reminds our girls to fly high, and always be confident in themselves and their abilities.
We offer a diverse and stilulating curriculum for girls aged 3-11. Choosing a school is one of the most important decisions we take for our children. Parents choose us for the following reasons: small class sizes, high teacher:pupil ratio, dedicated and committed teaching and non teaching staff, specialist teaching staff in French, Spanish PE, music and art, specialist teaching areas, extensive extra-curricular provision, a reputation for ensuring first choice school at 11+, a school full of hard working, motivated and courteous girls, early morning (Larks) 7.35-8.30am and after school (Owls) 3.00-6.00pm provision.
Age range
3–11 years. Ask the school about entry points and the age range of its prep division.
